Set within a quiet East Athens cul-de-sac, this classic traditional home offers a gracious floor plan, beautifully appointed interior and an extraordinary outdoor setting designed for both everyday enjoyment and entertaining. Mature custom landscaping establishes a welcoming first impression and continues throughout the property, complementing the home's timeless charm and creating your very own private oasis. Inside, natural light fills the formal interior through an abundance of double-pane windows, enhanced by a blinds package, recessed lighting and gleaming hardwood floors. The two-story foyer opens to the great room, where a vaulted ceiling and centrally placed fireplace create a striking gathering space. Open to the living space, the formal dining room is framed by a wall of windows overlooking the rear, offering tranquil views while providing an abundance of natural light. The spacious kitchen extends from the main living area, thoughtfully arranged with custom details, generous storage, custom cabinetry accented by tile backsplash and under-cabinet lighting, granite countertops, and a raised breakfast bar. A convenient pass-through with serving bar keeps the kitchen connected to the great room, while the adjoining breakfast area offers a bright and comfortable spot for casual meals. The laundry room adds valuable storage with a large pantry. Privately situated on the main level, the primary suite provides a peaceful retreat beneath a loft double tray ceiling, with a lavishly detailed bath featuring a vessel tub, tiled shower, separate water closets, dual vanities and a large closet complete with a shelving system. The second level takes advantage of the home's open two-story design, where a catwalk overlooks the foyer and great room below. Two additional bedrooms are situated upstairs, including one with its own private entrance to the full bath. A spacious bonus room completes the level, offering a versatile area that can serve a purpose all its own. Even more possibilities await with the daylight terrace level, where the unfinished space has already been studded and stubbed, providing an excellent opportunity to create a personalized lower-level retreat. The rear of the property is where this home truly expands its living space, offering a series of outdoor areas that work together beautifully. A screened porch opens to an oversized covered deck spanning the rear of the home, while a separate sun deck with built-in Jacuzzi creates another inviting destination. The terrace level opens to an expansive patio that continues to expand to an open-air flagstone patio, while custom landscaping and winding rock pathways weave throughout the private rear yard. A custom water feature adds a tranquil focal point, with water cascading over river rock and creating a peaceful backdrop throughout the fenced rear yard. A two-car side-entry garage plus additional carport provide ample parking and convenience. Immaculately maintained and move-in ready, this distinctive property offers classic architectural appeal, generous living space and exceptional outdoor amenities in a convenient East Athens location just 4 miles from the UGA Veterinary Teaching Hospital.
